  • fortnite_onion .50 cal (@fortnite_onion) reported

    @FiveOhNinetyTwo @revurharleyyyy i don't rly like overwatch anyways but i hate moira bc it's a perfect example of the issues i have with the game

  • CMYKChuffy Chuffy | E10s Woes (@CMYKChuffy) reported

    @pcgamer Y’all in replies ignore broken metas all the time but suddenly it’s an issue when the very SUGGESTION of accessibility comes up. Take a good look at yourself. If this was really about bad balance ruining a game for you, you wouldn’t be playing **** like Overwatch, WoW or LoL

  • TheAngzt Angzt (@TheAngzt) reported

    Overwatch 2 still hasn't sold me on why it needs to be a sequel, but that may be a communication issue, not one with the game. 5/5

  • Bigg_Knight Jordan 🤙🏼 (@Bigg_Knight) reported

    Load into multiple games of overwatch the match starts and instantly 2FPS last time I played no issues what so ever everything is up to date any ideas?! #Overwatch #Blizzard

  • _mothmoss boola they/she (@_mothmoss) reported

    its such a mog how overwatch just replaces toxic **** with like "im staying up past my bed time dont tell mommy" and "im wrestling with some insecurity issues" ****** BRUTAL

  • snm4IWvHBQfVrE5 최지성 (@snm4IWvHBQfVrE5) reported

    @Jesse_Aster @PlayOverwatch There's information about Overwatch 2, but the problem is, there's nothing new about Overwatch 1 we're playing now.A lot of people are giving up the overwatch that's stopped, and this is a big problem.

  • BotWithOpinions Video Game Opinion Bot (@BotWithOpinions) reported

    We need more Overwatch Standard Issue Pulse Rifles in video games. Get on it Peter Molyneux

  • BloodfiresGarbo ♠An Unknown Demonic Horror♠ (@BloodfiresGarbo) reported

    I feel like the problem with the overwatch redesigns is when the character was originally designed they clearly made it to show as much character as possible. You know Reaper is edgy and uses a shotgun because he has shotgun shells strapped to him. Now he look like a robot

  • tesshissa T e s s 🚀 (@tesshissa) reported

    Started playing overwatch again and it still ***** me up thinking about that very real gambling problem I had in 2017.

  • ZenoKagemaru Snake Queen Zeno (@ZenoKagemaru) reported

    @McNippins @OWAnonymous_ It does not, in Overwatch especially. Overwatch is a very broken game that doesn’t bother to punish players for poor behavior and especially not for cheating. With no moderation, there’s no integrity, and with no integrity, there’s no point in caring.

  • eternaltime29 killuafreacks (@eternaltime29) reported

    @BungieHelp I got banned 2 weeks for any matchmaking activity because conexión errors, I checked my connection in other games like overwatch and rainbow 6 and all is fine (17 ping max in R6) this is very unfair that you throw the fault at me

  • snek_Mom Sophie A. (1/2 project slots open) (@snek_Mom) reported

    @SamSantala for context there is a lot of built up resentment towards blizzard in general since the fiasco last time they did a press conference... also a lot of people really wanted overwatch to improve. systemic problems brought up by the community were ignored in favor of monetization.

  • kaijju_ Jay (@kaijju_) reported

    @BionicPIGtv my problem is the state of current overwatch. I can’t help feeling like we’re entering a dark age since they said echo was going to be the last hero added until OW2. It’s been almost 2 years since the last map. I’m afraid the game might die even more.

  • Freyanuris Frey 🌿 𝒷𝓊𝓈𝓎 (@Freyanuris) reported

    @ZellBellArt Ah no I totally get it! My partner and I have been having the same luck on console (PSN) lately. Super aggressive enemy team w/ non-existent teammates (though sometimes I’m definitely the problem too LOL). We’re so impatient for Overwatch 2 at this point but we’ll survive 😭

  • haze_starr The Shittiest Little Gremlin (@haze_starr) reported

    @Doinstuffman @OrdinaryGamers I used to have a problem like this, but with overwatch

  • the_titan_hunt TitanGamingOSF (@the_titan_hunt) reported

    @repl0id "Overwatch" please help me get rid of auto correct it gets me into trouble!!!!!!

  • TheAftia Aftia (@TheAftia) reported

    @BlizzardCS The player “FineROMEO1129” openly admitted that he booted someone offline for the win in my Overwatch comp game? I already reported but it’s been a problem for not only my games but other peoples as well

  • PSukas Sukas_p (@PSukas) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent I sent your support a ticket 5 days ago about my Overwatch saying "account has no Overwatch license" even though it's in my Blizzard account as "active" and I bought it years ago. Can someone fix this immediately? Why am I waiting so long?

  • KATSUBERRIES sin (@KATSUBERRIES) reported

    @UniedSomething You’re acting like McCree being mixed bends so far that it ruins the entire concept of Overwatch itself. Calm your tits and let people say McCree is mixed, lmao. If you have such a big problem with this then that kinda says a lot. Starts with r, ends with ist.

  • WhosTodd Todd (@WhosTodd) reported

    Blizzard did this really quirky thing where it says I don’t own Overwatch? Loving the last 3 hours trying to fix that

  • TheDeaconCash Deacon Cash aka DERPBOT (possibly) (@TheDeaconCash) reported

    Suddenly having issues running Overwatch of FFXIV at stream. Can't edit my schedule without repeat errors. What a migraine, @TwitchSupport why is everything having a meltdown?

  • PSukas Sukas_p (@PSukas) reported

    @BlizzardCS I've been playing Overwatch for YEARS. I was a diamond player, then a platinum player for 2 seasons, and then a gold player for a few more seasons. I bought the damn game for $60 or whatever it was when the game was released. Why is is the so hard to fix?

  • Spooks_AD Spooks but embarrassed (@Spooks_AD) reported

    i have severe issues with people writting reyes from overwatch as a bilingual immigrant latino daddy when he doesnt seem to care about the culture much less even know the language. compare him to sombra whos actually mexican to see how the actual latino representation behaves.

  • bmthxizzy Isabel Lopez (@bmthxizzy) reported

  • PatientZero_0 Patient Zero (@PatientZero_0) reported

    Overwatch was lagging like crazy, I couldn’t move without it freezing. Almost back up and running again!

  • pennstaterz Joy Boy (@pennstaterz) reported

    Why is @Blizzard_Ent trying to garner hype for new maps for overwatch 2 rather than fix the broken ****** maps in overwatch? Paris has never once been fun. Not once. Just pure garbage.
